Hi,

My SSL auth got invalid, so I updated my SSL configuration (Apache works)

This ist the log:

A login via SSH is working, What could be the reason for the login fail?

This is my config:
---
# 2.2.9: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 3.13.0-85-generic x86_64 Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS
auth_debug = yes
auth_verbose = yes
mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
namespace {
  hidden = yes
  inbox = yes
  list = no
  location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u
  prefix = "#mbox/"
  separator = /
  type = private
}
passdb {
  driver = pam
}
plugin {
  sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve
  sieve_dir = ~/sieve
}
protocols = " imap pop3"
service auth {
  unix_listener /var/spool/postfix/private/auth {
    mode = 0666
  }
sl_ca = </etc/letsencrypt/live/HOST/chain.pem
ssl_cert = </etc/letsencrypt/live/HOST/cert.pem
ssl_key = </etc/letsencrypt/live/HOST/privkey.pem
userdb {
  driver = passwd
}
verbose_ssl = yes
protocol imap {
  mail_max_userip_connections = 400
}

Thanks in advance for your help!

KR,
Christof
